Abstract
A novel miniaturized, solid-contact potentiometric screen-printed electrode was developed for highly sensitive and selective determination of lidocaine anesthetic. The electrode integrated single-walled carbon nanotubes as a solid-contact material and a molecularly imprinted polymer as a recognition sensory material. The performance characteristics of the electrode were evaluated and optimized to display a Nernstian slope of 58.92 ± 0.98 mV/decade over a linear concentration range of 4.53 × 10−7 to 6.18 × 10−3 mol/l within < 6 s. The detection limit was 7.75 × 10−8 mol/l (18.16 ng/ml) of lidocaine. The use of the molecularly imprinted polymer significantly enhanced the selectivity of the electrode, and carbon nanotubes increased the sensitivity, accuracy, and potential stability. The electrode was successfully used for determining lidocaine in pharmaceutical preparations and human urine. The results favorably compared with data obtained by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry.
